Dominated by to

Dear all,

I do not understand the meaning of the construction "domination by the superpower to the south". Could anybody explain me what is meant here? Thank you.


Meanwhile, a considerable part of the left in English Canada for decades similarly conceived the liberation of the Canadian economy and foreign policy from domination by the superpower to the south as the starting point of any viable left project.
